There is a certain bias in the media against the BJP.
The Punjab problem was a creation of the Congress when they propped up Bhindranwale to cut the Shiromani Akali Dal to size. The Kashmir problem was created by the Congress and the NC when they rigged the 1987 elections. One of the candidates who lost due to rigging went on to become Syed Salauddin of the Hizbul Mujahiddeen.
Despite all this, the Congress party point fingers at the BJP. Kailasa and Manasarovar were handed over to China while Thinvida region was given to Bangladesh by the Congress during their rule
Our young television anchors have no Journalistic basics .. and our ageing party spokenperson want a space in their twlight of career .. Thats a deadly cocktail for the viewing mass. Lack of ethics can also push up popularity ( Read TRP)

Narayan...
They are actually what Modi calls them " NEWS TRADERS", they sell their lines to the highest bidder.
ELM and TV channels have to be disciplined. I have written to the BJP candidate in my area and extracted a promise from him, that should he be elected, he will propose a Regulatory Authority for the Media on the lines of TRAI and IRDA for us to go and complain.
